All APO’s are responsible for developing and maintaining their Remotely Managed Post Offices (RMPO) under their control at a high degree of efficiency and for assuring that all USPS standards are maintained.
Administrative Postmasters can accomplish their mission only through the effective use of people. How successful an APO is in working with people will, to a great measure, determine whether or not the goals of the Postal Service are attained. Getting the job done through people is not an easy task, and certain basic things are required, such as:
a. Let the RMPO know what is expected of them.
b. Know fully if the RMPO is not attaining expectations; don’t guess
c. You are the Administrative Manager of your RMPO –don’t pass this responsibility onto someone else.
d. Work with your RMPO’s to run efficient operations to meet the goals of the Postal Service.
e. Communicate with your RMPO. Ensure they have the support needed.
